Overview

This replacement blade is made for the JORGENSEN No.4 and No.5 bench planes, two of the most common smoothing and jack plane sizes. At $20.98 it is a straightforward way to restore a clean cut when the original iron is worn.

It holds a 4.6-star rating across 29 reviews, with about 50 buyers in the last month. The review pool is small, so the rating is encouraging rather than deeply proven.

The listing provides no steel type, thickness, or bevel angle, so it sells on fitment to the No.4 and No.5 rather than on spec. Confirm your plane model before ordering.

Performance notes

Replacing a worn iron restores a clean shaving in a No.4 or No.5. With no material or thickness published, the 4.6-star rating across 29 reviews is the main guide to how well it holds an edge.

What buyers say

At 4.6 stars over 29 reviews with roughly 50 monthly buyers, the small but positive feedback points to owners getting a correct-fitting, satisfactory replacement.
